This Gi doesn’t just look great, but feels great as well. The jacket is made of 350 GSM Pearl Weave and is engineered with Cooling Technology to wick moisture, accelerate drying, and keep you cool while rolling. I was a bit skeptical about it actually working to keep me cool while rolling, as most Gis feel like a sauna suit after a couple rolls, but I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it held true to it’s word. The material used for the jacket, while it does feel very thin and lightweight, has held up rather well and proved to be very durable during hard roll after hard roll and I did noticed I don’t get as hot rolling in it. The pants are made out of 10 ounce rip stop cotton and feel just a great as the jacket does.
The size and fit is great. I did have to shrink both the jacket and the pants a little bit, but after that it fit exactly how I wanted it to. Another thing I love about this Gi, and War Tribe Gis in general, is that they have collections specifically for women so that the pants and jacket are tailored to fit a women’s frame. Also with that, they give women the option to choose a different size for the jacket and the pants so that we can have a Gi that fits perfectly without worrying about buying a certain size and having either the pants or the jacket not fit ideally.
As far as the designs go, it has very minimal, clean, precision direct embroidery on the sleeves and pant legs, and contrasting stitching. I personally like the clean cut, no big patches/designs with just a hint of color from the contrasting stitching, but for those who like to add their own gym and academy and sponsorship patches it is great because it gives you a lot of room to work with so that you can add as many patches as you like.
The only downside is that it is a bit of a pricey Gi, however, the durability and quality of it are worth every penny in my opinion.
